eye color.
Your eyes. Your color. Your transformation.
Keratopigmentation led by Dr. Amir Théodore Hojabr, MD, who has performed thousands of procedures. Partner locations in the USA and India are in development. A surgical procedure: results vary and risks apply. Pictures on this page are AI-generated illustrations unless they are marked as a real result.
Which color is yours?
Nine signature shades, shown on nine different faces. Choose one to look closer.
Illustrations generated with AI. They are not real clients and not real results, and they are not a promise of how your eyes will look. Your final shade depends on your natural iris and a physician’s assessment.
How do you want to feel?
Choose one or two words. We will suggest where to start looking. It is a style guide, not a recommendation: a physician decides what is suitable for your eyes.

Your real eyes.
Keratopigmentation places pigment inside the cornea using a femtosecond laser. It is intended to be permanent. This is a real result on a real client, handled by Dr. Hojabr.
Individual results vary. It is also a surgical procedure: eligibility is decided by a physician, and complications can occur.

Dr. Amir Théodore Hojabr, MD.
Ophthalmologist · Keratopigmentation specialist · Co-Founder & Chief Medical Officer
Dr. Hojabr has established practices in Paris and Geneva and performs procedures there. He sets Netra Color’s clinical standards and leads its surgeon training and credentialing; the surgeon who performs your procedure remains responsible for your care.
Four steps, inside the cornea.
Femtosecond laser
A precise laser prepares the path.
Corneal micro-tunnel
A thin channel is created within the cornea.
Ophthalmic pigment
Ophthalmic pigment is placed in the channel.
Visible color
The apparent color of the eye changes.
Schematic, not to scale. Your physician explains the technique, the risks and the alternatives in detail.
Every eye is different.
Your final appearance depends on your natural pigmentation, the anatomy of your cornea, the shade you choose and how you heal. That is why a physician assesses you in person before anything is decided, and why the pictures on this page are illustrations and not predictions.
Temporary or permanent?
Colored contacts are the reversible, lower-risk way to try a new color. Keratopigmentation is for people who want a lasting, natural look and accept the risks of a surgical procedure. Here is how the options compare.
| Colored contacts | Color-changing drops | Iris implant | Keratopigmentation | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Permanence | Temporary and reversible | Unproven; some drops can change color permanently | Permanent, placed inside the eye | Intended to be permanent. Fading can occur and is covered by touch-ups where clinically appropriate |
| Daily care | Daily insertion, cleaning and replacement | Repeated use | None | No daily routine after healing, and no lens edge |
| Regulatory status | FDA-approved lenses are fitted on prescription | Not approved for changing eye color | Approved in the USA only for certain congenital conditions | Not FDA-approved for cosmetic use; performed off-label by ophthalmologists. Rules differ by country |
| Main risks | Infection and inflammation, mainly with poorly fitted or costume lenses | Unproven claims and possible harm | Serious surgical risks inside the eye | Inflammation, light sensitivity and fading. Long-term data are limited |
| Who provides it | An optometrist or ophthalmologist | Not recommended | An eye surgeon | A qualified ophthalmologist |
General information, not medical advice. Ophthalmologists generally regard colored contacts as the lower-risk option. A physician will discuss which choice suits you.
Beauty begins with a healthy eye.
Like any eye procedure, keratopigmentation carries risks, including light sensitivity, inflammation, infection and changes in vision. Long-term evidence for purely cosmetic use is limited. A physician can decline to perform the procedure for safety reasons.
Is it permanent?
It is intended to be permanent. In some cases pigment can fade and may be touched up. Removal may not be possible or complete, and a physician will discuss this with you before you decide.
Is it safe?
Like any eye procedure it carries risks, including light sensitivity, inflammation, infection and changes in vision. Published evidence is encouraging but long-term data is limited. Eligibility screening, a trained surgeon and follow-up are there to reduce risk, not to remove it.
Who is not suitable?
People under 18, anyone with an active eye infection or inflammation, and people with some existing eye conditions. Many other situations need a physician’s review. A physician always decides.
How long does it take?
About 40 minutes for both eyes, in one session.
What does it cost?
In Paris and Geneva the price is USD 12,000 with the hotel and airport pick-up and drop-off, and USD 10,000 without them. It includes the written assurance on touch-ups and scheduled follow-up. Airfare is not included. A USD 300 consultation comes first and is credited in full against your final payment.
Can I finance it?
Financing varies by country and by where you have the procedure, and some lenders only fund the procedure at clinics enrolled with them. See Payment options below, and ask us before you apply.
Can I choose any shade?
You can express a preference. The final shade depends on your natural iris and a physician’s assessment, and the images on this site are illustrations generated with AI.
